Bardo Pond – Looking For Another Place 12”
(2nd part of a trilogy – complete on RSD 2015)
LP // FIRELP340 // 809236134011

Bardo Pond follow up last year’s RSD release ‘Rise Above It All’ with the second of a trilogy of RSD exclusive releases. Continuing their exploration and interpretation of existing tracks, this time they turn their attention to ‘Ride Into The Sun’ by the Velvet Underground and ‘Here Come The Warm Jets’ by Brian Eno. The results are astounding and in the case of ‘Here Come The Warm Jets’ wonderfully surprising, with Isobel’s voice embellishing a rendition of startling Bardo pop.

Refulgo is fucking incredible, the only track I'd heard before was Sangh Seritiam from the Harmony of the Spheres comp.

...Unbelievably excited to announce a Carbon Records release that will be available at this year's Record Store Day. The release will be a split LP from Loren Connors and Vapour Theories. The later is John and Michael Gibbons from Bardo Pond. Two of my all-time favorite acts! Spread the word, tell your favorite record stores to get in touch with me to place direct RSD orders (joe@carbonrecords.com).

Holy shit. I can't believe I haven't seen anything about this. Is this an April Fool's joke?

Rise above it all was pretty nice--maggot brain and creator has a master plan, and I think the eno cover could be pretty good, too. It's on my order list for RSD

if so I'm not in on it!

uhh...

i just stumbled across something very nice.
It's titled as Bardo Pond but it has to be Alasehir (John, Micheal and Jason) playing in a bookstore in philly.

Here's an unofficial RSD release with Loren Connors and John and Michael of Bardo Pond.
Edition of 300, 50 w/ a special screen printing.
I hope I got one :)

oh yeah i know of this. veryy nice. :) hard to find bardo pond lives.

i think my most 'deep' and frequent utube searches are for them and Haino.

Anybody lucky enough to pick up their RSD LP? Neither store in my city got them, they told me it was east coast only.

got it and I'm left coast

Very cool. How's the Eno cover?

Bardo Pond RSD sucks, whatever makes that woman think she can sing is beyond me. And I am usually real forgiving of female vocalists. Playing is great, but the vocals go on and on and on and on and on, I have higher hopes for the Mazola Conners split. I got it in the mail yesterday but have yet to listen

I love isobel's vocals, usually they work well into bardo's squall

Got them to play live for us on the radio next week, will update with more details

Good work man!

Sweet!

Will it be available online for a while afterwards or is it listen at the time of broadcast only?

Did I miss it? I'm trying to figure out the time zone difference...
